About MAZ

Cytogenetic location: 16p11.2 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 16:29,806,124-29,811,164 (from NCBI)

This gene has 15 transcripts (splice variants), 248 orthologues and 36 paralogues. Ubiquitous expression in bone marrow (RPKM 38.3), colon (RPKM 34.1) and 25 other tissues.

Summary

Enables DNA-binding transcription factor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific and RNA polymerase II cis-regulatory region sequence-specific DNA binding activity. Involved in several processes, including regulation of gene expression; regulation of signal transduction; and transcription by RNA polymerase II. Predicted to be located in cytoplasm and nucleus.
